A Thanksgiving tradition

Joan is hosting the Charming Girls Quilt Club for the month of October and she has a special giveaway! Since Joan lives in Canada and has just celebrated Thanksgiving there she has asked us to post a favorite Thanksgiving recipe.
Here is what I have been making for quite a few years now - Pumpkin Streusel Pie from a recipe that I found in Sunset magazine.
I just happened to have a picture of one of the pies I have made. I didn't take the time to make the leaves around the edge of this one but I have done that before. I realize that I don't make pretty pies - yet.

Praise - I praise God for my hubby, for all that he does for this family, for me, that he is a strong, healthy, Godly man.

Prayers - also for my hubby, that he would stay focused on God, always desiring to do what pleases Him above everything else. I pray for his health and also for the decisions that he needs to make in regards to employment.
